"SHOOT IT IN MY VEINS" ❌ "sperm it up my hole"

Loved part 1, and now I'm conscious to my self diagnosis of being chronically online. Part 2 whilst it was important, it felt like it needed it's own time to shine.

"What is it like to have a child right now?"......."Everything's on fire, so you no longer have to worry about doing a good job"

I don't live deeply enough in the Twitterverse to understand what makes this book great. There were definitely lines that made me laugh out loud, and others that I appreciated for their insight, but many times I just felt disoriented. I forced myself to read to Part II, knowing there would be a turn as the narrator, deeply embedded in the world of "the Portal," would face a real life tragedy, and it was the grounding of a family crisis that pulled me to the end of the book. I wish there had been more of a break in the form as the plot developed, but I definitely found it more relatable and worthwhile. Again, this book was not written for the likes of me. I'm glad I read it, but not something I think I would return to.
